DJ LeMahieu’s Yankees misery gets even worse
NY Post
The Machine is leaking oil.
Last year’s American League batting champion was already a shell of his prior self at the plate and Sunday night a rare defensive miscue contributed to yet another Yankees loss. DJ LeMahieu’s inability to get to a shallow pop-up in right field off the bat of pinch-hitter Christian Arroyo contributed to the Red Sox completing the sweep in The Bronx with a come-from-behind 6-5, 10-inning victory in front of 19,103 at the Stadium.
From the perch of Mika Zibanejad, this has been different. The Rangers still lost plenty of games at the start of the season. Still unintentionally constructed the shaky foundation that has since cratered all the way to last place in the Eastern Conference.
The Yankees are signaling a wiliness to do not just one opt-out, but two opt-outs for Cody Bellinger in continuing efforts to bridge the long-standing issue of length of contract.
SAN FRANCISCO — Landry Shamet returned from a 25-game absence and scored six points in 16 minutes in the Knicks’ 126-113 loss to the Warriors on Thursday night.
SAN FRANCISCO — Jalen Brunson’s troublesome right ankle cost him a high-profile showdown.
The Giants’ agreement with John Harbaugh to become their next head coach was inside the 1-yard line and up to the lawyers to run a successful Tush Push.
EDMONTON, Alberta — Put this one on the Vezina Trophy résumé for Ilya Sorokin.
Mike Tomlin offered a heartfelt parting message to DeMeco Ryans on Monday night after coaching what would be his final game for the Steelers.
SACRAMENTO — Jalen Brunson’s Achilles heel is his right ankle.
What the Mets won’t offer in contract length, they’re more than making up for in just how much they are willing to pay Kyle Tucker in a short span.
Perhaps Kirk Cousins sees the writing on the wall.
The booing, after each of the four Senators goals and whenever else the Rangers play warranted it, said it all. So did the cheers — the mock ones unleashed in the Garden when the public address announcer issued the one-minute remaining warning in the first period.
SACRAMENTO — Mike Brown called out Karl-Anthony Towns for a lazy play.
It wasn’t devastating for Scott Morrow. He knew he had to earn his spot, that nothing would be handed to him. He wanted to make the Blueshirts roster, sure, but he didn’t necessarily expect it.
